I live there currently with my husband and 2 dogs. The pluses of the Bougainvillea apartments are being close to the beach, the stores (markets, etc), and also that the bus picks you up/drops you off right in front of the apartments. The cons are that the weekend bus schedule isn't always consistent (but weekdays have been consistent so far). Also, there is an overnight guard which makes us feel safer here. The only other con is there don't seem to be as many students in this area even though there are a lot in these apartments because a lot of students live in Lance Epine instead.

The water is kind of odd. They have drainage pipes from the roof that go into big storage tanks. So I think our water is a combination of Grenadian filtered water and rain water. We use the PUR filter because it is the one that filters out bacteria, giardia, etc. The water tastes fine though. You can get water delivered, but we haven't researched that yet. Almost all water on the island is chlorinated and stored in big tanks, but the water coming from the roof seemed odd to us.

Hope this helps!
